Join us for a beloved Northeast Wisconsin tradition! Get in the holiday spirit with our 25th annual Christmas show. Diamonds and Gold and Festival Foods present Let Me Be Frank Productions' all-new comedy musical, "A Frank's Christmas," at the Meyer Theatre, November 29-December 28, 2024
The holiday season is for family, food, and making memories, right? Well, that’s all June Griswoldski wants for Christmas in 1965. She would love to reconnect with her sister, Lisa Johnson. The unfortunate part is that their husbands, Ward Griswoldski and “Cousin” Eddie Johnson, don’t quite get along as brothers-in-law. A few too many games of sheepshead in 1962 left Ward empty-handed and convinced Eddie was cheating. It’s been downhill since. This year will be different though! Eddie, Lisa, Ruby Sue, and Rocky Johnson from Christmas, Michigan travel to Pulaski, Wisconsin to spend the holidays with Ward, June, Wally, and Beaver Griswoldski. Wally can’t wait to see his cousin, Ruby Sue, again. Much to his dismay, Beaver is the perfect chaperone whenever Ruby Sue is around! And Rocky, well…Rocky is just happy to be included. Can Ward and Eddie put aside their differences to make this a Christmas to remember? You’ll have to see in this all-original Christmas musical comedy!
